For what they will cost, I'd still rather have a 4door JK.

For what they will cost I'd still rather buy some land in the hills to drive my beater around on.

I gotta say though it is very bad ass. SRT-8 option in the future maybe? That would be temping.
 
OP is confusing. Are you saying you like that minivan at the top of the page or that you hate it more than the older models?
 
Yeah, I'll take my old '02 model over an inflated crossover any day. That's not what comes to mind when I think SUV, kinda like the new Ferd Exploder...
 
Ehhh...nothing spectacular...wouldn't entice me to jump ship from Ford. The Edge fits the gf's needs perfectly right now, and I'd recommend it to anybody. And when kids come along, I suspect a new Sploder will too, after playing with one, to me, it was just an extended Edge that seats 7.
 
Looks like a Dodge Grand Cherrocar to me.

LOL never owned one have you!

I purchased a 2004 brand new. Since then I have put 150,000 miles on it and the only things I have replaced on it is:

2 set of tires (Almost due for set # 3)
2 sets of brakes
1 set of rotors
1 Set of Spark Plugs
1 coil on cylinder 6
1 injector on cylinder 1
oil sending unit.

I just drove it to NY and back this past weekend. It got down to -23 the last night we were there and it started the second turn of the motor.

It always amazes me when I hear people mention transmissions and dodges. It was the 90's when dodge had their issues and just about every other American manufacturer did also. I had a 99 blazer that exploded the reverse drum 3 times before it had 100,000 miles on it. Not to mention the lovely 700R4 Chevy had back then that did more slipping then engaging. And I am sure Ford had their issues also but I never owned one so I can't comment.

Sorry for the rant it just gets old reading post from people who obviously know nothing about what they are talking about.
